I just got back from my pre-op and I feel a hundred million times better than I did after the last pre-op. I lucked out and talked to an amazing anaethesiologist-- Dr. Harris. He was fantastic about working with my phobia. I swear to god, if we have kids and he's still there, I want him as my anaethesiologist for my c-section. He was amazing.
I am not going to have an IV while awake. He is going to do a mask induction, which is essentially being gassed. After I'm out, they'll put a local anaesthetic on my arm and started the IV. They'll put painkillers, antibiotics, and possibly an antiemetic in before fulling bringing me out. They'll also remove the IV line as soon as I am out of the anaesthesia, but before I am totally congniscent. Basically, I'll never have to see my IV.
I can keep my underpants on. I can have Steven with me as soon as I wake up. I can have my glasses as soon as I wake up. I am feeling way less trepidation than I was last time. I almost feel good about this, in fact. I'm still a little nervous, as I would be about any major procedure, but I am less nervous about being put under.
